The micro transactions and shittiness mainly.
This! My steam deck with an igpu has been running all the new games fine. Granted not like 120+fps fine, but my desktop has a two generation old card and god only knows about the CPU and it's hitting 120 easy on the games I play. Which of the games I play, cyberpunk is the most resource intensive.
That people keep buying into... so the cycle continues.
More's the shame. Our last console was a PS3, it was such a non-fun waste of time that we never bought into the 4 or 5. I used to buy a new PC title a year or so before than, really none new since StarCraft II.
There's some great games out there, they are just not the big ones.
